The reason that relationship has been so strong over so many years and that this, quote, lobby has been so successful is they're pushing through an open door with policymakers, not because some nefarious money influence, but because at the end of the day, the interests align.

We counter terrorism together.

We counter nuclear proliferation together.

And we believe that the U.S.-Israel relationship is a strong relationship.

And these accusations of dual loyalty and these accusations of Israel firsters that Scott's thrown around, I think distract us from the conversation, which I think we should return to.

Let's talk about today.

We've talked about best case scenarios.

We talked about worst case scenarios and we talked about really worst case scenarios.

So I think let's talk about the way forward.

And I'd be interested in hearing from Scott where he thinks we're going.

And I'm certainly, I don't crystal ball these things.

It's always difficult to predict.

But I think President Trump has done

A really good job.

He has led this.

He has not been at the beck and call of Bibi Netanyahu or Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia or anyone else.

He has led this effort.

He has made these decisions.

This is a man who throughout his entire career, and not just his political career, but many, many years before that, believed that an Iranian nuclear weapon was a threat to the United States of America.

not just to our allies, but to the United States of America.
